| book description |

Christian Wisdom for Our Tech-Saturated Age  The rapid advance of digital technology is reshaping our world and warping our minds. The onslaught of social media and smartphones has brought an appetite for distraction, an epidemic of loneliness, and increased rates of mental unhealth. For Christians, the digital revolution has profound implications for spiritual formation and mission. How should believers respond to the theological and discipleship challenges of scrolling life?   On the 40th anniversary of Neil Postman’s prophetic book Amusing Ourselves to Death (1985), Scrolling Ourselves to Death gathers today’s most incisive writers to think critically about the shaping power of contemporary technology. This book explores Postman’s insights, connects them to the challenges facing Christians today, and turns difficult challenges into life-giving opportunities for the church. Stepping back from their screens, readers will be equipped to live faithfully, and grow spiritually, in a “scrolling ourselves to death” world.  Practical: Includes action steps readers can use to reclaim a healthy life in a tech-saturated world Wise: Helps readers become more discerning in the way they think about and utilize technology Perfect for Small Groups: Includes discussion questions at the end of every chapter Useful for Church Leaders or Ministry Staff: Perfect for those who want to help those they lead think more carefully about technology Expert Contributors: Features insights from a wide variety of leading Christian thinkers on technology, faith, and culture
